Super great half-day trip to explore the New Orleans area more with a nice small group! Our tour guide Gisele was fantastic, gave excellent insight into the area’s history and must-see things. The air boat tour was exciting, we saw plenty of alligators. The plantation tour with Beverly was excellent, she gave an interesting tour and was very knowledgeable about the plantation. Shout out also to Ann at the plantation museum, she had excellent knowledge about the 1811 revolt. Overall, can definitely recommend this tour!
